Weird white squares all over the place with latest version

This worked for me. Let me know if this works for you as well? Close Plex Desktop before running this. Forcing opengl here

This is for Flatpak.

sudo flatpak override tv.plex.PlexDesktop --env=QT_QUICK_BACKEND=opengl


If using SNAP, then maybe try this.

snap list

sudo snap set <snap-name> env.QT_QUICK_BACKEND=opengl

Replace <snap-name> with the actual name of the Snap package (e.g., plex-desktop if that’s the Snap name).

snap restart <snap-name>

See if this works for you. For me, the white boxes that randomly appear are not showing any more.
